Review and giveaway: Glade Expressions Collection

We have a very small home, and in that small home we have two adults, two kids and two cats. The cats and the kids seem to have contests sometimes to see who can make our condo the smelliest, so I was happy to get the chance to review some products from Glade Expressions designed to help me make my home smell good again! Here's a bit about these products:

Glade® celebrates the latest addition to its popular and award- winning
home fragrances – the new Glade Expressions Collection – by continuing
its long- standing partnership with Giuliana Rancic, entertainment
journalist. The collection features an incomparable fragrance experience
in two contemporary designs – a fragrance mist and an oil diffuser –
that have been developed to appeal to today’s modern women.

Formally introduced by Glade and Rancic during an event on January 19 in
New York City, the collection is a whole new way to experience home
fragrance, with true-to-life scents and unique designs. The Glade®
Expressions Collection includes four on-trend fragrances that combine
classic scents with an exotic twist, including Cotton & Italian
Mandarin, Pineapple & Mangosteen, Fuji Apple & Cardamom Spice
and Lavender & Juniper Berry.

My parents have been visiting for the past couple of weeks, and my mom was standing nearby when I opened up the box containing my Glade Expressions products. Both she and I immediately commented on how pretty the oil diffuser was- it doesn't look at all like an air freshener!

The fragrance of the oil diffuser was a little strong for me (I'm really sensitive to strong fragrances), so I couldn't have it in the living room, but it has been a great addition to the bathroom that my kids and cats share. I like that it's refillable and that I can change out the fragrance to one of the other options if I choose to do so in the future.

The fragrance mist is also really nice. It's easy to use, has a nice fresh scent, and again, doesn't look much like an air freshener. The fragrance mist is also refillable, and you can change to a different scent with each refill if you so choose!

I really like both of these Glade Expressions products. I think they look nice and smell great, and I will definitely be purchasing refills for both in the future!

And I have good news- one of you will win the same two products I reviewed- one fragrance mist and one oil diffuser. Open to US mailing addresses only, enter at the Rafflecopter widget below.

Well, I suppose I could say I'd like to win this for myself, but really, it's more for any poor souls who enter my house! We have a dog and a cat. Both sleep in the entranceway, so I'm always paranoid about pet odors hitting visitors as soon as they come in the front door. Glade Expressions would help me feel a lot more confident when I invite people over!
